3 FUEL EFFICIENCY 4 5

4 FUEL EFFICIENCY Advanced Aerodynamics: exceptional Efficiency (XE): I-Shift: Volvo Engines: Innovation with purpose to save you money. At Volvo, we believe fuel efficiency is a vital part of our commitment to your business and ultimately, to the planet we all share. That s why we re constantly challenging ourselves to find new and improved ways to make Volvo trucks some of the most fuel-efficient trucks on the road. Fuel efficiency is more than a single feature, it s a combination of customized solutions working together in perfect harmony. The result is fuel-efficiency custom built for your business needs. For over a decade, Volvo trucks have worn some of the most advanced aerodynamic features in the industry. Not only do they give our trucks a striking, modern look, our aerodynamics features can make a big difference to your bottom line. Volvo s award-winning XE offering is a custom fuelefficiency solution based on the specific needs of your business. And because XE gets smarter every year, more and more businesses across North America are seeing the big difference XE can make. Our innovative automated manual transmission makes every driver more fuelefficient by ensuring the right shift at the right time. Standard in every Volvo truck, I-Shift s intelligent electronics constantly monitor factors like road grade, speed, weight, and engine load to help keep the truck in the most fuel-efficient gear possible. Perfectly matched to I-Shift, Volvo offers a range of engines designed to meet your specific needs. With three different sizes available providing up to 600 hp and 2050 lb-ft of torque, you can save fuel by precisely matching engine to application with the confidence that you ll always have enough power to get the job done. 6 Learn more: volvotrucks.us.com/vnl2016 7

5 FUEL EFFICIENCY AERODYNAMICS Effortlessly splits the wind. VNL series trucks feature a redesigned aero bumper and lower airflow deflector, which quickly attach air to the truck and efficiently channel airflow rearward. Low turbulence is high priority. A redesigned roof air deflector better complements the aerodynamic roof fairing and adjustable trim tab. Together, they help keep the air attached and smooth out costly turbulence between the cab and trailer. Sleek design. Solid savings. Keeps air in the fast lane. On the VNL 630 and 670, new flared chassis fairings optimize airflow past the drive wheels and tractor-trailer gap. Mirrors that put savings in focus. The driver sees comforting wide angle views. Your fleet sees fuel savings. The aerodynamic design of our mirror assembly reduces turbulence by attaching air more quickly to the tractor. Did you know the latest VNL update features our most aerodynamic and fuel-efficient package yet? In fact, it offers up to 3.5% fuel savings* when paired with an aero trailer compared to the previous package. *Includes redesigned I-Shift s transmission cooler. See page 15. Controlling air doesn t stop on the outside. Our new smart fan clutch increases fuel efficiency by up to 0.7% by only running the fan when extra cooling is necessary, varying fan speed based on cooling needs. 8 Learn more: volvotrucks.us.com/vnl2016 9

6 FUEL EFFICIENCY XE PACKAGE The award-winning exceptional Efficiency (XE) package pushes Volvo s commitment to fuel-efficiency and reliability even further. Extreme fuel efficiency. Great driveability. XE isn t a single fuel-saving feature like aerodynamic mirrors, or side fairings, it s a completely customized solution that perfectly matches your vehicle and powertrain settings to the needs of your business. It all starts with choosing the right Volvo engine and matching it with I-Shift; then, we help you choose the optimum efficiency package based on your application. Together, these factors can help you save up to an additional 0.2 mpg or more. That can mean savings of as much as $2,000 per year, per truck. You tell us what you haul and where you haul it, and we ll tell you how XE can help your trucks get the job done while helping your business save big on fuel. 10 Learn more: volvotrucks.us.com/vnl

7 FUEL EFFICIENCY XE PACKAGE XE continues to evolve. The XE package gets smarter every year, and is now available in a new package designed exclusively for liquid tanker, flatbed, and bulk haul applications. 12 XE Adaptive Gearing. A wider sweet spot. Choose your torque. The first drivetrain in the industry to use rear axle load to change the driveline based on whether the vehicle is loaded or unloaded. It gives you two transmissions in one: the performance of a direct drive when loaded, and a downspeeding overdrive when light. In some applications, XE packages help you save fuel by widening the sweet spot rpm range of the engine. Traditional drivelines achieve peak fuel efficiency between rpm. But through Volvo s use of downspeeding, XE widens the range to rpm. For every 100 rpm of downspeeding, fuel efficiency is improved by approximately 1.5%. Since the Volvo XE13 package downspeeds the engine by 200 rpm or more, you ll realize a total fuel efficiency increase of up to 3%. The latest XE13 package is now available with your choice of different engine torque management software. XE Economy lowers engine torque in the starting gears, maximizing tire and driveline reliability while providing ample power and torque to get the job done at cruise speed. XE High Torque allows maximum torque in all gears, for those who prefer a faster transition to cruise speed. Learn more: volvotrucks.us.com/vnl

8 POWERTRAIN I-SHIFT An automated manual transmission with digital intelligence. Volvo s innovative I-Shift transmission combines the ease of an automatic, the efficiency of a manual, and the intelligence to handle any road and every load. The secret lies in an electronic control unit that shifts perfectly, every time. So I-Shift not only keeps fuel costs down, it helps slow driveline wear, extends transmission life, and lowers maintenance costs. Makes every driver fuel efficient. I-Shift uses intelligent electronics to continuously monitor grade, speed, weight, and engine load, shifting when necessary or holding a gear whichever saves more fuel. So regardless of experience or training, I-Shift helps every driver become more fuel-efficient. Brains, brawn, and value. I-Shift has a 2,323 lb-ft torque rating, so it s compatible with every engine in our lineup. But did you know that I-Shift can also increase your truck s resale value? If your Volvo truck was purchased with a lower engine power rating, a simple software flash can uprate it to the highest power rating for its displacement without having to replace the transmission. Eases your mind and your left foot. When you drive an I-Shift, you ll never want to deal with a clutch again. I-Shift lets you concentrate on the task at hand delivering freight not on what gear you re in. It s easy to use and always ready with the right gear, so missed shifts and sore knees are a thing of the past. With I-Shift, just sit back, get comfortable, and concentrate on your driving. Design changes that save fuel. I-Shift s redesigned transmission cooler optimizes fluid temperature in cold and warm climates, improving fuel efficiency by up to 0.5%. 14 Learn more: volvotrucks.us.com/vnl

9 POWERTRAIN VOLVO ENGINES Lower fuel costs, no special driver training. Volvo s SCR No Regen Engine leads the industry in using fully passive regeneration to deliver near-zero emissions of NOx and particulates. And because this process happens automatically in most highway applications, your drivers don t need any special training saving your fleet both time and money. ENGINE DPF DEF MIXING ZONE CATALYTIC CONVERTER Driving near-zero emissions. Volvo s Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system is a superior solution to the EPA s 2010 emissions standards, not to mention a fuel- and cost-saving innovation for your fleet. Here s how it works: high-nox/particulate exhaust flows from the engine to Volvo s diesel particulate filter (DPF), where much of the exhausts particulate is removed. Next, before the exhaust reaches the catalytic converter, diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) is mixed in. The DEF and catalytic converter change the harmful nitrogen oxides into harmless nitrogen and water vapor, and the truck s NOx emissions register at near-zero levels. DEF allows the engine to use less exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), and maintain higher oxygen levels for better combustion. Bigger hills, fewer fuel stops. Volvo engines offer an impressive mix of power, efficiency, and value. All are 2014 GHG-certified and have been optimized to help you save up to 3% on fuel compared to previous Volvo engines. And with up to 600 hp and 2,050 lb-ft of torque, Volvo engines are built to handle the biggest loads and the toughest roads. Powerful and precise engine braking. The Intelligent Volvo Engine Brake (I-VEB) is an enhanced engine braking system that gives drivers precise control over engine braking, and saves the truck s brakes for when they re needed most. The D11, D13, and D16 engines use a Variable Geometry Turbocharger (VGT), which, thanks to intelligent software, supercharges the I-VEB system. The result is phenomenal retarding horsepower at low rpm, where the engine spends most of its time and where braking is needed most. An impressive 600 hp retardation is available at 2200 rpm with the D16, 500 hp at 2200 rpm with the D13, and 410 hp with the D Learn more: volvotrucks.us.com/vnl

15 SAFETY 28 29

16 SAFETY Volvo is safety. Since 1927, our brand has used safety as the guiding principle for everything we build. We were the first company to introduce 3-point safety belts as a standard feature, and to this day are the only company to provide driver-side airbags standard in every truck we make. Volvo s commitment to safety protects your business by putting the well-being of drivers your most valuable asset first. Intelligent design that maximizes comfort and visibility combined with advanced safety technology helps drivers avoid or minimize accidents, keeping them safe while reducing cargo loss, downtime, and accident-related insurance costs. 30 Learn more: volvotrucks.us.com/vnl

17 SAFETY FEATURES Industry-leading safety. Just in case. To make sure that our trucks are the safest rigs on the road, we combine advanced engineering with active and passive safety systems. Active Safety Technology. Volvo Enhanced Stability Technology (VEST). Losing control, jack-knifing, and rolling over are three of the most dangerous incidents a driver can face. Standard on all VNL tractors, Volvo Enhanced Stability Technology, or VEST, continually monitors driver inputs and normal driving parameters. When VEST detects that the truck is dangerously close to an event such as a rollover, the system automatically reduces engine torque and selectively applies the necessary braking to help get the truck back on course. Volvo Enhanced Cruise (VEC). Being surrounded by smaller, more nimble vehicles can be stressful. Volvo Enhanced Cruise (VEC) adds peace of mind by helping the driver maintain a safe following distance. The front bumper-mounted radar monitors vehicles driving in front of the truck, and if they get too close, audio and visual warnings alert the driver. If the truck continues to close on the vehicle, VEC can automatically dethrottle the engine and apply the truck s service brakes to help prevent a collision or lessen its impact. Lane Departure Warning. This safety system uses a windshield-mounted camera to track road markings. If the truck begins to drift, audio and visual alerts warn the driver to get back into the correct lane. Passive Safety Technology. Intelligent impact protection. Built to pass the demanding Swedish Cab Safety Test, our high-strength steel (HSS) cabs have the industry s highest strength-to-weight ratio, and are designed to absorb as much of a crash s energy as possible to protect the driver. To further protect occupants, the steering column collapses and the engine and transmission drop down and away from the driver. Airbag and seat belts come standard. Volvo is the only Class 8 manufacturer to put a driver s side airbag standard in every truck. What else did you expect from the inventors of the 3-point safety belt? 32 Learn more: volvotrucks.us.com/vnl
